A few short years ago, Jerome’s life was completely different: He was obese, he never worked out, his stress levels were sky high, and his lower back was in constant pain. But then his best friend suffered a sudden heart attack and passed away. And Jerome realized that if he didn’t start exercising, his life would also be at stake.

And so, he completely upended his life, one facet at a time.

A few years ago, Steve noticed a pain radiating from his neck into shoulders that he described as oppressively bad.

Even as a kid, Cody was always bigger than the other kids. But after graduating nursing school in 2014, he realized he had to lose weight. And so, he lost 70 pounds in short order. But there was one problem: He didn’t do it in a sustainable way—and so the weight returned.

As he started getting back into fitness, the pandemic hit. All the gyms were closed, and he was worried about losing the spark of motivation he had after becoming a dad. That’s when Cody joined Man Flow Yoga—and the rest is history. Well, kinda…

While nobody likes to acknowledge it, falling is one of the most dangerous things that can happen once you turn 60.

Today’s guest, Brian, first realized his flexibility and balance were deteriorating after he lost his balance on a log and fell into the water when he was hiking. Despite being fit, once he turned 60, he realized his body just couldn’t do what it used to be able to do.

Joe wasn’t always jacked and healthy. In fact, after his first daughter was born, Joe didn’t exercise for 15 to 20 years! 

One day just four years ago, Joe didn’t like how he looked, how he felt, or the example of aging he was setting for his daughters. And so, he stumbled into a gym for the first time in decades.
